I had a great experience with this rescue. All the animals were well taken care of & I would've adopted any one of them. However, I was looking for a GSD puppy and saw some on their website. I sent an email, got a response, and drove to Prague to meet the puppies in person. I picked one out that day & returned a week later to pick him up. He turned 13 on 10/22/21. Thanks again to OK Save A Dog!

I wanted to adopt a dog & I found this organization on PetFinder. When I spoke to the lady she was extremely nice and knowledgeable re: what I was looking for. When I finally got the time to meet her she found the exact dog that fit perfectly with my family. You could tell she was not there just to get rid of the dogs she had. She did a background check & asked me several questions to make sure I was able to care for the dog for the rest of his life. She gets an A+ in my book!
I got my sweet Zella from OKSAD in 2015 and I appreciate all their work to rescue dogs and place them in loving homes!

Great people to work with, wealth of knowledge about their dogs and the dogs needs. Good screening process. I have adopted 2, both were and are still well taken care of, healthy, and happy. Tracy is now about 14 and Brittney is 6.

I have 3 Ok Save A Dog adoptions, they are wonderful to work with and have the GREATEST Dogs. All 3 were well veted, fixed, and ready for life.
We adopted a female chihuahua mix named Coco on Jan 1st 2021 and on Jan 31st, 2021 we adopted a male Chiahuahua mix name Rory. They were well cared for by OK Save A Dog. They are well behaved and adjusted quickly. Thank you for providing our family with our forever fur babies.
OK Save a Dog does an excellent job at the hard work of saving dogs. They did a great job screening to help ensure a good fit. And I found out my vet got her dog from them too!
We rescued our dogs from here many years ago. Kim goes out of her way to make sure a dog will be a good fit for your family. She taught us some basic puppy care as well. Although we moved to a different state, we continue to donate when we are able.

The three dogs living with us now are all from this rescue. We have adopted others that have moved out with our grown kids. The dogs are known by the volunteers at the rescue so they can be paired well with prospective families.
Dogs at the rescue roam free in fenced enclosures rather than having to be caged. This means their interaction with other animals can be observed which, again, results in better placements.
Commitment to the animals is paramount at this rescue. Sometimes that results in unhappy people (who don't get a dog unsuited for their home) but that's okay. OKSave a Dog exists solely to save dogs and improve their lives. They are stellar at achieving that mission.
They have been around a long time and have helped countless dogs move on from tragic circumstances.
We had been looking to add two large breed dogs to our family when I saw the most gorgeous puppy on the FB page of our photography teacher. She was fostering this little handsome guy and four of his sisters. We really wanted brothers but we decided to check this guy out anyways. He was about 9 weeks old; a Great Pyranees/Healer mix. When we went to meet him, we learned he was one of eleven pups and had brothers at the OKSAD location. We ended up bringing Zeus home and going back for Apollo the next day. Zeus is dominant Pyranees and is the sweetest guy. His brother, Apollo, is actually dominant Labrador and he is the friendliest, happiest dog I have ever met.
What we really liked about OKSAD is they are really particular about to whom they adopt the dogs. The application form is thorough and the fees are reasonable (considering the dogs are spayed/neutered, chipped and up-to-date on all shots) but high enough to reflect the seriousness of the decision you are about to make. We truly appreciate this about OKSAD as it reflects their high standards and the passion and love they have for these animals.
We have been blessed by OKSAD and our two boys for over 2 1/2 years now and we couldn’t be happier or love these boys more.
My mother had lost her dog to cancer, was living alone on her farm and giving up. We saw Dixie on their website, my mother fell in love. We filled out their application and explained our situation. When we went to pick up Dixie my mother was thrilled, due to my mom’s age I also signed the paperwork. Sadly mom went into a nursing home seven months after adopting Dixie, and I happily brought her into my home. One of the best things I ever did. She is a dream, her name is still Dixie and she is adored and loved! Thanks to Ok Save A Dog, you are great!

This is a love story between an abused 5 year old female German Shepherd and an entire family that adopted her! My 82 year old mother lost her companion dog to cancer, still lived at home, was still physically able and fit, had raised GS for 30+ years and had a GS most of her life and was lost after CK died. I saw Dixie on the OK Save A Dog website and had been watching her for about a month or so. I got sick at my stomach every time they had an adoption event worried that someone would take Dixie. If they took her I would never see her or have an opportunity to adopt her. When CK passed away I showed mom pics of Dixie again, she was worried they wouldn’t consider her due to her age.
I wrote to them, explained my mom’s situation, that she had years of experience with GS and that I felt with Dixie’s timidity, mom would be perfect for her and Dixie would be perfect for mom. I told them about mom’s place, her pens, fenced backyard, that Dixie would be indoors with mom, that we go to mom’s if not every day every other day. They agreed to see them together and see how mom handled Dixie.
Prague Oklahoma seemed like Prague Russia in distance to mother, we just couldn’t get there quick enough for her. They couldn’t bring Dixie out quick enough, she couldn’t get her hands on her quick enough, sign paperwork and load her. Mom had fallen in love at first glimpse of Ms Dixie, she also fell for a gorgeous solid black GS they had on sight at the time they called Django. She wanted both and Django had a squeak toy he was using to get our attention. He was a beautiful boy. But Dixie and Django apparently didn’t like each other.
The only concern was mom’s age and what would happen if something happened to mom? I signed all the adoption paperwork with mom, in case anything happened to mom, I would take Dixie. I would have adopted Dixie myself but I had an 8 year old male GS myself and Dixie apparently didn’t like males.
Sadly my mother had to move into assisted living, I lost my 8 year old GS to an autoimmune issue all in a matter of a month. Dixie moved home with me, fell in love with my son and has begun her new life with my family. She is very timid, but each day try’s something new. She is the sweetest gentlest dog I have ever been around and I cannot believe that someone could have done to her what was done!
I thank God every day that she wound up with OK Save A Dog And is recovering. I also cannot ever express enough gratitude to them for allowing my mother one last German Shepherd and trusting her to love and care for her. Ms Dixie and my mom were quiet the pair and mother was very content and comfortable. Much heartfelt appreciation to a wonderful rescue, who not only cares for the animals but looks after the people adopting to make sure they make 4ever matches!
The first pic shows Miss Dixie hiding in her hidey hole, she hates storms. The camo beanbag in the background is her fav sleeping spot if she is in the hidey hole (interior storage room) for very long. The second pic is her at mom’s, my drandson and mom are brushing her, she loved that, both mom and Dixie.
I have gotten two wonderful pets thru OKSAD! My Lulu has over 300 hundred ticks on her when OKSAD got her & they were wonderful in taking the time to get all the ticks off! And my Goji has been the best dog, just a wonderful love. OKSAD is in rural Oklahoma where there is no money & very few resources and they just get it done!
We adopted Willow and Kobe (name changed to Dobby) about a year and a half ago. We drove an hour and a half to pick up Dobby and my husband fell in love with Willow so we brought them both home and they have become part of our family. The application is very thorough. Kim really goes out of her way to make sure the dogs are given a good, loving home. I am grateful to OK Save a Dog for filling the hole in our hearts we didn’t even know we had!
These two women dedicate their lives to savings animals, PERIOD! I have adopted several dogs from them that otherwise would have spent their last few days in a cold pound all alone. Instead they were saved (when everyone else gave up on them) by Kim & Sunshine. & then my family was blessed to adopt them

This rescue group is one of the most passionate & selfless of its kind. We have rescued 5 dogs total from them (so far) If OKSAD had not stepped in, who knows what would have happened to our now four legged family members. I have been a volunteer and these people don't get the recognition they deserve.
I have adopted from OKSAD twice and fostered for them over 250 times (lots of puppies!) within the last decade. I owe them my soulmate in dog form and they restore my faith in humanity every single day. With two ladies running the entire organization, I am constantly in awe of their focus in just flat out getting dogs into their forever homes and ignoring the worst in humanity while doing so. It’s easy to get discouraged in dog rescue, but Kim has been at this 30+ years and I can’t even begin to guess how many dog AND human lives she and Sunshine have touched. Including mine in the most poignant way possible.
Kim & Sunshine are amazing! Our family is blessed to have 2 oksad dogs! We love them with all our hearts & couldn’t imagine our lives without them. Keep up the awesome work ladies ❤️
OK SAVE A DOG is amazing! I adopted my sweet chihuahua Khaleesi from here in March 2014. I don't know what I would do without her. The adoption process was fairly easy I filled out the application and answered a few additional questions and a few days later I drove to Oklahoma and picked her up. The adoption fees are very reasonable since she came with all of her vaccinations and had just been spayed.
One of the best rescues out there! Hard working women with big hearts ♥️. I am so grateful for my sweet Molly Sue (Patches).
OK Save a Dog is one of the best rescues in the state. They don't just try to move dogs out to homes, they work with the prospective families to find the best fit between dogs and people. They work tirelessly, night and day....without a break, taking money from their own pockets to feed and provide medical care for these orphan animals. You can do no better than to support this great group. I've adopted thru them as well as supported them with financial help.
I came all the way from South Florida to adopt my Lili aka: mama from Ok Save A Dog. They are real people doing a lot of good for so many hurting dogs etc..

I adopted a young lab mix 18months ago from ok save a dog. They are the real deal. Keeping the dog's best interest first. I came all the way from
South Florida to get her. It's the best thing I ever did. Thank you to the team that works so hard to keep these dogs safe. Ok Save A Dog, your good people..
I called looking for a small dog and they had a litter of Chihuahuas and when I drove from Tulsa to OKC they had one left. They knew I was coming and saved him for me. I love my dog.
This organization tirelessly helps dogs in need. They make sure the dogs go to good homes, they work day & night, and many times are sorely underfunded. Some of the nicest people! I will adopt from them again when mine cross the rainbow bridge. This group is very deserving of receiving accolades as a great non-profit!
My husband and I knew we wanted to adopt a dog after getting married. What we didn't know is that we would fall absolutely in love with not one, but TWO dogs at OK Save A Dog! We stopped by one of their adoption events after lunch and saw two precious brothers napping together. They were well taken care of, sweet boys, and we knew we couldn't separate them. Billy and Bob turned into Mumford and Rockwell! Three years later, and our boys are like children to us! They are gentle and cuddly, and love a good belly rub! If it wasn't for OK Save A Dog, we would never have found our sweet littles pups! We still take our boys by their local adoption events to say hello and tell them how much we truly appreciate their work! Thank you, OK Save A Dog!
I adopted a little Bichon named Izzy about 5 years ago. She was a love from the beginning. Very well behaved. She was fully vetted and was the perfect fit in my home. She is the Queen in my house. I would adopt again in a heartbeat.
I adopted my pup Walker from OK Save a Dog 4.5 years ago. They are an incredible organization that truly cares for their animals and their long term wellbeing.
All of my pets have come from OKSaveaDog! They have an uncanny ability to pair the perfect pet in your family!
10/10 would reccomend

We have adopted 3 dogs from OKSAD. They take the best care of their dogs and really get to know their personalities so they can make the best matches. The dogs are socialized and friendly, they don't crate their dogs but let them run and play. You can find all breeds and ages at OKSAD, they don't discriminate but save as many dogs as they can. We will always adopt from OKSAD.
The 2 woman that run this rescue are amazing, caring women! They go above and beyond to help the fur babies. Never turn a baby away and always do what's best for them! Definitely would recommend adopting from them!

We adopted our Lexi 10 years ago. In these past 10 years I have pointed people in the direction of this wonderful organization and have never heard a bad word about them. The property they keep is immaculate and all who pass through are well cared for and loved.
We adopted our princess from OK Save A Dog 12 years ago and couldn't be happier that Kim and team were able to rescue her so we could apply and adopt. Consistently have the best interest of the animal above all!
OK Save A Dog brought my bouncy ball of energy, Londynne into my life. Finding a rescue that really cares about their dogs and practices thoughtfulness when it comes to selecting their furever homes made me a fast fan of OK Save A Dog! When it is time for my next new family member, I will not hesitate to pick them from the caring hands of this rescue!
Loving kind compassionate I rescue too with a different group and have been at big events with these folks
I have two wonderful rescue pups from OK Save A Dog. Fantastic! I recommend them to anyone who asks me.
We are so happy we found our fur baby through OK Save a Dog! They were so quick to respond to my questions and emails and so friendly when we met in person. They truly love what they do and take the best of care of all the pups.
This rescue does SO much with SO little! A small operation but its heart is solid gold. My sister, my nephew, one of my best friends, and my husband and I have all adopted dogs from OKSAD. We are now regular donors. We wish we could do more, but help out with extra as needed. Mike and I will eventually be adopting another dog, and we will trust OKSAD to help us find the perfect match! This is our little Buddy, courtesy of OKSAD!

OMG, where to start . . . I found my latest pup at OK Save a Dog. I am so thankful that my application was accepted and I got to adopt Buddy (formerly Toby). This rescue does so much with so little--only two people working to save as many dogs and puppies as possible. I know their resources are stretched at times. They vet their dogs, as well as their applicants, which is so encouraging to me. I know that when they send a dog to a home, that home has been fully investigated. Great people, great dogs, great organization! My whole family has adopted dogs from OKSAD and I will soon be looking for another one from them!
We adopted our sweet Gus(Leo) from Save a Dog. He is honestly the sweetest dog and is so smart. He was so well taken care of and since he came to them with his mom as a very young puppy it is very evident the work they put into the puppies and dogs they get. He was well socialized and very confident which is not the case for a lot of puppies who have to grow up in a rescue environment. Also the rescue event we attended was awesome...you can tell the difference between them and other rescues and shelters the moment you walk up...the dogs are all calm and content to be in their crates. There was little to no barking. Anyone who has ever attended any adoption event understands what I mean. We love our Save A Dog pup!!
Brenda who was a white schnausser who we adopted from Ok. Save a dog had been an abused breeder dog before Kim got her. I have had her and spoiled and loved her for the last 9 years. She crossed the rainbow bridge this morning. Thank you for helping her find love and happiness for these years....sad but grateful to have had her.
We have adopted three of our dogs from Ok Save A Dog. Without their tireless efforts to do the hard work of rescuing, many people like us would not have our fur babies!! Thank you for all you do.
OK Save a Dog is a wonderful rescue. I adopted Hamilton from them 10 years ago. He is now a registered therapy dog who works daily at our elementary school making children smile!

Thank You so much for taking the time to help us out.
I can’t say enough good things about OK Save a Dog. They came highly recommended by our granddaughter, who got her dog from them a few years back. We saw their posting on a Thursday, filled out an application Friday morning, and had an appointment to meet “Willow” at their beautifully maintained facility at noon on Saturday. It was love at first sight. Despite her previous circumstances, she was beautifully groomed, had received all her vaccinations, and was spayed and micro-chipped. It was abundantly clear that their primary concern was for the animal and making certain she was going to a proper home.

Thank You so much for taking the time to help us out.
Kim and Sunshine are fantastic. You can tell they really care about what they do and are always willing to go above and beyond. I’ve had my rescue pup for close to three years now and wouldn’t trade him for the world.
In 2007 two weeks after my dog died, I started looking on the Internet at other dogs. I saw a photograph of one I liked at OK Save A Dog. I emailed and Ms. Bowers answered me promptly and told me some information on the dog, then gave me directions on how to find them. I went out to Prague, met her, met the dog and fell in love. The dog had no only been abandoned, but had been badly abused and OK Save A Dog took care of him and made him able to trust again. That was the 7th of March 2007, he is now about 13 years old and is my best friend. I am partially disabled, live alone except for Robbie (the dog) who is my best friend and constant companion and has made the last 11 1/2 years joyful.
An amazing rescue! Saving dogs daily. Constantly helping other rescues. True blessing to have their help.
I adopted a little chiweenie named lilly and she has been such a blessing. The nonprofit organization is amazing and always there for you. They truly believe in helping animals find forever homes and getting them well before adopted.
I thought about getting new member to our family for a long time but the time was never quite right. One day while at work I found OK Save a Dog online and they had a sweet little dog the named Patches. I completed the application and was so excited I was approved that I left work and took the 1 hour drive the same day to pick her up. The process was so easy and Kim quickly responded to my emails. I am so grateful to OK Save a Dog and to Kim and Sunshine for dedicating their lives to the dogs, especially my sweet Molly. I can’t imagine her not in our lives.
I got my "look-a-like" dog from OKSAD 2-27-2014. The ladies were very helpful with information and advice for caring for my new adoption. We have been inseparable ever since. I signed up for the OKSAD mailing list at that time and I have seen the pictures of some of the severely damaged dogs that these folks have rescued and nursed back to health. And I've read the testimonials from the wonderful folks that have adopted from them. We all appreciate the dedication and devotion and the endless hours that these folks give for our best friends.
I adopted my sweet Sophie a little over a year ago from Ok Save a Dog. I was so impressed with their screening process and making sure the dog would be well cared for in their new home. I definitely recommend them to anyone who is wanting to rescue a pet.
OK Save A Dog is great! Believe me when I say great I mean GREAT! Like a free oil change or two when you buy a new truck great. All greatness aside, this group of dedicated people selflessly labor for the good of animals that cannot do so on their own, and provide loving care for animals and their new companions all over the US and sometimes abroad.
Love OKSAD! They do great work and help so many animals. Adopted my Moxy from them almost 5 years ago.
This is an awesome rescue. They really care about the animals and finding them a good home. We recently adopted two of their dogs and love our new babies so much!
My family has adopted 3 dogs from OK Save A Dog! They are a wonderful organization. When we got the dogs they were healthy, clean, and well taken care of. Our vet was very impressed with their initial care and that they had immunization records provided. And they were already microchipped! Great rescue and great folks!
I have adopted three dogs through OKSAD. I love them. Sunshine and Kim are some of the best people I have ever met and they truly care about the dogs they work with and their adopters.

Three years ago we adopted an absolutely perfect terrier mix. She was a horder dog and so shy that if we sneezed she would run and hide. Now she is the most personable dog I have ever met. If you sneeze she runs to check on you and give kisses, or boop your nose with a little paw.
So a earlier this year when we started looking for another baby to play with her, we knew exactly where to go. Sunshine is amazing and one of the greatest people have ever met.
What great work you do. Thank you for saving and loving these beautiful animals. Thank you for responding to my questions and I will keep watching and hope to adopt from you!!
We have known Kim for over 10 years. In that time we have had blessing of adopting 2 dogs from them. Everyone is so caring and compassionate. Thank you for saving our babies
Ok Save A Dog does such fantastic work. Diligent in saving and placing these babies. Truly angels. We have the love of our life from them!
Ok Save A Dog is the best! I adopted my baby girl, Dixie in 2013. They truly care about their dogs and adopters. They’re hardworking, tireless and singleminded about finding homes for their dogs. I also volunteered with them a couple of times. Sunshine and Kim are great people, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to adopt a dog into their home.
We adopted our first fur baby at OK Save A Dog in 2011. They were very helpful trying to find the right fit for our family. Princess has been a blessing to our family and I know they are entirely dedicated to save dogs and find them the right home.
Such dedication and selflessness the dogs are loved while waiting and fully vetted. All rescues should learn from this dedicated team who rescue for the dogs.
OK Save A Dog is a wonderful, very caring rescue. They are so kind to the animals in their care, and treat them as they should be treated. The rescue is extremely clean, with lots of room for the dogs to run and play. The dogs are not kept in cages. They are socialized and given every opportunity to find a loving home. They screen prospective owners thoroughly and even recommend pets that would be the best fit. I have adopted three dogs from OK Save A Dog, and all three were healthy, immunized, neutered, and socialized before they left the rescue. Without hesitation, I recommend OK Save A Dog to anyone who wants to adopt a rescue!
This rescue is absolutely the best. They operate honestly, ethically, and I love that the animals who aren't adopted still have a furever home......right there with Kim and Sunshine. I've adopted 7 dogs from them, even though I'm a couple states away. But I can trust their dogs are healthy, socialized, and already loved, even before the come to me. Five of my current six are thanks to their loving work.
Rock on, OK Save A Dog!!!!
We adopted Amos from OK Save a Dog in April of 2014. It was a battle, but it was clear to me that Kim really cares about the homes that her dogs go to and the likely hood that the home will be a forever home. Put in the effort, show that you care and are willing to be the right family for the dog that you are interested in. If you aren't approved, take it as constructive criticism to revaluate your home/family for the type of dog you want to adopt. These women are doing amazing work to protect and care for so many animals that are just thrown away. So proud to support them in their mission!
I was a volunteer for OKSAD for about 18 months (give or take a couple of months) while I lived in Oklahoma City. The organization is is without a doubt one of the most caring organizations around and the placement of their animals with the correct home is absolutely paramount. That is what led me to volunteer with them over others. The amount of work that goes into placing dogs with the right home is massive and is certainly not easy. Other places drop prices and don't do their research and hope for the best. This place ensures that whatever decision is made, is made for the benefit of the animal. The face or the organization, Sunshine, is perhaps one of the nicest and sweetest people you could ever hope to meet and we are still friends even after I moved to Florida. Her drive to help these animals in need is second to no ones. You would do well to volunteer with, donate money/supplies, or adopt from OKSAD.
We TOTALLY love OK Save A Dog Society !! Eleven years ago we adopted 2 of our 3 dogs from them (the other one we found LOL). We have helped out at a few adoption events, have donated money, blankets and other supplies when we can, but the main way we offer our service to them is to act as Volunteer transport drivers. When dogs need to find their way to Prague, OK, we proudly offer our car, our gasoline and our time. We know that it takes all of us doing our part in order to help Kim and Sunshine find forever homes for these innocent dogs. We love our dogs and can't imagine our lives without them. We owe Kim and Sunshine a debt of gratitude for saving our dogs when they were helpless and homeless. We will always feel a special connection to them and treasure our roles in the huge, loving family that is known as OK Save A Dog Society. We love OKSAD !!!
Kim & Sunshine are true angels here on earth! They have helped me and my small Rescue save so many lives. They don’t pick and choose, they have helped me save sick/injured dogs, puppies with no momma, seniors, all lives matter to them. I absolutely love working with these 2 ladies and visiting with them when I transport there. This by far is the best Rescue I have worked with in the 5 years I been rescuing! I can never thank them enough for all they have done for me and my rescue!
This rescue is one of the very few who take the time to socialize each of the dogs. They screen each adopter and work to find the right match to maximize success. The dogs are fully medically vetted including micro chips. They are the best.

They pour their hearts into each and every animal they find and show these poor babies love and what it feels like to have a safe place.
This organization is fantastic! We adopted a pup (Toby/now Buddy) from them in April when he was about 8-9 weeks old. He came to us healthy and well-taken care of, as well as chipped and neutered. I know he was in excellent health because I took him to my vet, immediately (just a habit of mine). I already had 3 cats and 2 dogs so I did not HAVE to get another! I CHOSE to get Buddy from OKSAD because of it's great reputation (multiple family members have adopted from them). The length of the form and the scrutiny of the questions made me nervous about "passing muster"; however, I took no offense because they want their dogs to be well-taken care of and well-loved for the rest of their lives!! Thankfully, OKSAD gave us custody of this vibrant, bright-eyed sweetheart and he has changed the lives of my husband and me!! Rest assured, my future dogs will all come from this wonderful organization I KNOW I can trust! I have no doubt every dollar raised is used for the rescue and care of these precious souls--I wish I had a million dollars to give them!
Thank you for all the help and emotional support you gave my family whilst they were in Oklahoma receiving treatment for cancer . The dog that they chose and you organised (with great effort on your part) to be flown to the UK has proven to be a wonderful addition to the family.
My family has adopted 3 dogs from OKSaveaDog. They do amazing work and save so many animals' lives. They are essential to helping the animal community and deserve all the help and recognition they can get!
I was looking for a puppy on petfinder and found a precious female sable dog with Ok Save a dog. My mother and I drove to Oklahoma to get her. Once we got there and Kim brought her out, although she was beautiful it was not a good fit. Kim brought her sister out. She came out barking and playful...I knew she was the one! She is now 7 years old, weighs 130lbs and is my best feiend. Ok Save a dog does wonderful, caring work for these babies.
My family and I have volunteered for events, picked up dogs for Kim and Sunshine, adopted out many and many of dogs, donated and seen how much efforts this rescue puts in day in and day out. Currently, my mother has 3 oksad dogs, my oldest sister has two, my other sister has 1, both of my brothers each have 2 oksad dogs, and my grandparents have 2, and my aunt has 1, and I am about to foster one myself. Each of these dogs have been such large parts of our family, and we love them dearly, along with this rescue group. We continually follow up with this group, and love hearing stories of other families who have also adopted from them.
Ok Save a Dog has some of the biggest hearts out there. They save as many animals as they can, nurse and love them until they can find amazing, loving homes. Their efforts are heartwarming and my next dog will be a rescue from them.
Awesome organization. We adopted a puppy that I wouldn't want to do life without her. She provides so much joy and OK Save A Dog was great to work with!
Wonderful work by some amazing people. We are grateful to them for matching us with our precious Maggie.
I have been donating to OK Save A Dog for some time. Not only do they pull dogs from shelters but being in a rural setting, they take in the dogs that are dumped in the country. To see the transition of the dogs that are taken in is amazing. The time and dedication of all involved to foster and attend adoption events might seem overwhelming to some but the OK Save A Dog team does it consistently and constantly. They really go the extra mile.
I have been volunteering with OK Save A Dog for over 10 yrs now! They are the real deal! They fully vet every dog, let the dogs be dogs... they aren't penned up 24/7 but are able to run and play all day! Each potential adopter is screened thoroughly because they truly care about the animals. It's about quality not quantity! Their lives are dedicated to these animals and I am blessed to be a part of this. Incredible rescue!

OK Save A Dog is the B.E.S.T.!!!!! Not only are they non-kill and place dogs in loving fur-ever homes, they make sure that the dogs are placed in the RIGHT homes. They ensure that each applicant is screened thoroughly and placed in the correct environment. They fully vet each pooch that comes through their gates and dogs are....DOGS there.... they run free....aren't caged up 24/7. Nice open areas! WONDERFUL place..... should be called HAPPY ENDINGS!
Fantastic. This program strives to match animals to homes based on needs and personalities. They work tirelessly to educate people, too. They save countless lives and deserve a special place in heaven.
This organization saves so many dogs, it is amazing.. They really care a lot about their dogs going to good homes, go to great efforts to ensure that they do.. They always have so many precious dogs of all ages, there is no reason for anyone in central Oklahoma to look anywhere else to find their next best friend.. I got my little She-Ra there, and our family just LOVES her and we all think she is the most beautiful perfect dog in the world!
The real deal. When you donate, your money goes strictly to the dogs. No salaries and no fluff. I've not only adopted 3 dogs from them, I've visited there numerous times and the place is clean and very well kept. There are no cages. They are about saving lives, even lives of the not so perfect or not so adorable or those in need of big medical care. Oklahoma is very blessed to have them saving lives and educating adopters! They are always willing to take back any dog they've adopted out. ❤️

I adopted Piper from OK save a dog Society back in 2015. They had found the momma and her 5 pups in a hoarder home. When I met Piper she was in a foster home with her brother woody. It was love at first sight.
About a year later I got a message from Pipers foster saying that Izzy, Pipers sister had been returned to the rescue because her owner went off to college and didn't want her. I immediately jumped in the car, made the hour drive to the rescue and met Pipers sister, Izzy. I got to meet Kim, the head honcho of the rescue and she is such a caring and hard working lady! Best advice and customer service one could ask for.
An adoption fee and a signature later Izzy was packed in my car and on her way to her new home.
OK Save A Dog is such a wonderful organization that helps so many animals in need.. that with out them, they would die!
5 stars all the way around!
Ok Save A Dog is a wonderful organization with caring, dedicated workers who sacrifice so much in order to save as many animals as possible each year! I adopted my sweet JRT mix girl, Katie, 6 & 1/2 years ago from them. She has been a part of the family ever since and my house wouldn't be the same without her. The founders are selfless people who deserve all the support that can be given. Everything they receive is used for the excellent care of the dogs! They work tirelessly to ensure every dog has a loving forever home.
My boys and I adopted our dog from OK Save a Dog two years ago and it has been the best experience ever. Not only did we get a great dog but got great service. The owners are very caring and do not just adopt their babies to just anyone. They completely screen every applicant to make sure the animal will be taken care of. We would most definitely adopt from here again.
The best rescue around! We've adopted two dogs from them: Forge and Beeker. They take the time and money to make sure the dogs and family find a perfect fit.
Our Bailey came from OK Save a Dog. These ladies are just the best. What a wonderful, caring rescue. Bailey was older, neglected, partially disabled, but they saved him and gave him a chance. He has totally blossomed into a wonderful companion.
I love this rescue. Our family adopted our standard poodle, Hamilton, from OKSave a Dog ten years ago. He is well loved by ourselves and our community. He recently rode on Chouteau Day float with the first and second graders. Without OKSave a Dog, we would have had quite a void in our lives.
We have added these 3 furry kids to our family. Each having their own story of feeling unwanted and then ok save a dog came along. They saved these 3 and allowed them to rescue us. We love them with all our hearts and wouldn't know what to do without them. This rescue and those who keep it going are amazing and deserve and support they can get.
I adopted my little Annie (known as Dot) from Ok Save A Dog. We'll forever be grateful to them for saving her and allowing us to adopt her. She makes my days brighter & is my constant companion. Thank you
Ok Save A Dog!
Our family adopted our spaniel/border collie mix, Maggie, from Oksaveadog 6 years ago. Maggie was just a puppy and this wonderful group rescued her and her siblings from a local kill shelter. I've personally witnessed how hard this group works to help ALL dogs regardless of age or condition. Their efforts are tireless and they do it all from local donations. My life was forever changed when I adopted my sweet girl Maggie. I can't imagine life without her. Thanks to Oksaveadog for all of the love that they show the rescue dogs. I attatched a picture of my beautiful girl.
I've adopted 3 perfect kids from Ok Save A Dog and I couldn't love them more if I tried. They do excellent work (angels) and they truly care about the lives they save and that are in their care.. they are my heroes..
My late wife and I adopted a minipin from OKSAD 8 years ago. We drove up from Sherman, TX to view a dog we found on Pet Finder. Kim is very impressive, completely devoted to rescuing and caring for dogs. Prospective adopters are screened to find the dogs proper forever-homes. Since that original experience I have made contributions in cash and in kind, and recently discovered a portion of Amazon purchases can be donated through Amazon Smile, which I put in place immediately. I highly commend Kim for her dedication, and will continue to contribute to OKSAD, and will adopt another dog in the future.

My late wife and I adopted our fur-kid from here in 2008 and couldn't have been more pleased with the experience. Kim has prospective adopters checked out in advance to make sure her rescue dogs are going to responsible homes. All our questions were fully answered, and an appointment set to come meet our dog. We adopted Rose (now Skoshi), a little red MiniPin that had been dumped with her puppy at a dog pound. I am so glad we adopted this little girl-dog from OK Save A Dog. All the rescues are vetted and neutered, ready to become furry companions. By the way, we traveled from Sherman, TX to Prague to adopt our pet, based on the recommendation of friends in the Tulsa area and I am glad we did.
This rescue was my first experience with adopting from a rescue. I have adopted three other dogs since because of the positive experience I had with OK Save A Dog. They not only helped me add to my family but also educated me. I had no idea black dogs were harder to find homes for. Because of their education, I adopted a black baby from them and also have adopted two more black dogs. I adopted Jaxson from OK Save A Dog, and I call him my soul dog. I can't thank them enough for helping me make him a part of my family.
Love this rescue. They go out of their way to help all dogs regardless of how much help they need. They truly love and care for their dogs. I got one of my babies from them.
Excellent people who really do care about the animals they take care of. I couldn't be more pleased with the way they do things. They are a great service to the community.
This place is the real deal. I found my dog online and drove for three hours to get there and when I arrived I could not believe it. A true rescue with one concerted effort to save animals and rehome them in forever loving homes. These people work so hard to make sure that the animals are well cared for first and then placed in a good fit for both. I hope that you will award ok save a dog because it is a true rescue in every way.
My family and I adopted from OKSAD. This is what started our relationship with them. Now we volunteer to foster for them a few times a year. I have fostered for other organizations, but none come close to the level of care, expertise, and devotion that these ladies show toward the animals that they rescue. The animals always come first and they do everything in their power, then more, to save and care for them. They have devoted their lives to this mission. I am honored to foster for them.
We adopted our Abby from Kim at OK Save a Dog. They do such wonderful work on behalf of homeless dogs. We drove 4 hours from outside Dallas to pick up Abby, they care for and find homes for so many deserving dogs.

This rescue is what all others should strive to be. They are honest, caring and all about the dogs. I adopted my Abby from Kim 5 years ago and would not hesitate to go back again. The Dogs are treated as family and not kept in cages. They are loved and cared for as long as they are there. They handle the tough times with grace and always take in more when there is more need than space.
We adopted Demo (previously Jake & Socks) from OKSAD. He is a great member of our family and has 4 other fur siblings. Adopting and working with this group was great. They really care about their animals and where they will find their fur-ever homes!
We adopted our lab mix from this organization and I can't say enough amazing things about them! The women who run the rescue actually live on the same property of the animals so they're able to watch them closely and this is what they do day after day. They treat all of them like their own. The animals receive amazing care and I refer my friends to them when they're looking to adopt. They deserve to receive this opportunity so they can continue to rescue more animals!
I have gotten 3 of my furbabies from OK Save A Dog and they are a wonderful organization to work with. They truly care for their rescues and work with them to make them more adoptable. I have fostered for them as well and they have been very supportive if I needed assistance. They have a great staff and volunteers.

This is one of the greatest rescue groups I know. I have gotten 3 of my last dogs from them and they are always working to help save dogs from shelters, bad breeders, hoarders and abuse situations. These dogs are always taken care of no matter the problems or difficulties involved. They try and find the best home for the people adopting as well as the pet being adopted. Wonderful crew.
What a great job this organization does. They are saving/rescuing so many dogs and puppies, including seniors that otherwise would not get a second chance. We got a dog from here in June to be my son's friend and companion, and already know that any future dogs will come from here. The dogs are already socialized with people and other dogs, and they know each dog's personality.
We absolutely love what these ladies are doing! Very knowledgeable about these pups and they have a great thing going. I love that they know so much about these dogs, and the dogs look like they are having a blast. They look very well taken care of and if you get the chance, definitely adopt from them!
This rescue is absolutely amazing! They take excellent care of each and every dog that is there. The dogs are fed high quality no grain dog food, they are on Heartworm prevention. Each dog is given attention and love, which is so important when dealing with these dogs , so many have been in just horrible situations! This rescue took in a momma dog and her two puppies that my husband found on the side of the road . The momma dog was street smart and weary of humans, they helped bring her out of her shell and now she has a home ! Her two puppies also found a wonderful home together!
Molly stole our hearts three years ago, when we stumbled upon an adoption event and saw a tiny slip of a dog curled up in the back of her crate. She came home that day and soon discovered the joy of couches, beds, scritches, and regular meals. Little Molly-dog had been a hoarder rescue and it was immediately obvious that she had a very special place in OK Save A Dog's hearts as well. Molly (or Storm, as she was known at OKSAD) is still a little slip of a thing who, after spending the first two years in a cage, will lay down in the grass in the backyard and simply look at the world around her.
OKSAD does some good work and I, for one, am eternally grateful that they were on hand to rescue Molly and willing to let her come home with me. I can't imagine life without Molly. Thank you, OKSAD!
Adopted a dachshund from Sunshine several years ago who is one of our spoiled furbabies. They are the best & have such a love for the animals. When ready to adopt again will definitely go back to this special group.
These gals work hard to find loving homes for the animals in their rescue. The welfare, happiness and care of the dogs are a priority and it shows. I have volunteered with Sunshine at 2 adoption events and have donated over 3,000 lbs of pet food to support their cause.
These gals mean business when it comes rescuing and finding living homes.
This rescue goes above and beyond to save animals. They are tireless in their work to save lives and find loving homes for all their dogs.
I have so much to be grateful to OKSAD for. Their staff have enormous hearts full of kindness and compassion. They helped my son find happiness whilst visiting Oklahoma from the UK for cancer treatment and did everything possible to make come true his wish of bringing one of their dogs home with us. Tips the Boston cross is a joy and only here with us because of Kim and her dedicated staff. They are truly amazing people.
We adopted our dear Bear, a wonderful German Shepherd, from Kim years and years ago when OKSAD was in their infancy. Then later we adopted Eddie, our sweet Jack Russell. Both have been wonderful dogs. I have seen a lot of rescues come and go, but OKSAD has been steadfast in their passion and dedication to improving the lives of the abandoned dogs in the area. They have taken what little money they get from donations to improve their facilities and have expanded their abilities but have never profited from it. I truly admire them for doing such difficult work with love and grace.
I have worked indirectly with OKSAD for years and have been so impressed with they amount of work they do for abandoned and rescued dogs on so little money. They have a great skill set for saving and working with the dogs, they provide an excellent place for them and they work tirelessly to get them adopted to good forever homes. They have taken in animals from hoarders and such many times to help out the community and of course, the dogs. In my opinion, they are the absolute best dog rescue in our area, perhaps the state of Oklahoma. They are not publicity hounds but instead work around the clock doing work that most of us couldn't do. They have committed their lives to helping those that can't help themselves.
Every dog I've ever lived with has been from OK Save a Dog. They are professional, passionate and so knowledgeable. When it comes to finding homes for dogs they don't worry about how many dogs they can find homes for, they worry about the quality of the home, how the dog will affect the home and how the home will affect the dog. OK Save a Dog is what I wish all animal shelters were, it's not about the bottom line for them it's about saving animals, and in that regard they are the best.
I adopted my GSD Blossom from this rescue. Could not ask for a better rescue. For them it's all about the animals.
I adopted a schnauzer, Sassy in 2011. She was rescued in Shawnee, almost going to the gas chamber. She has been the best dog ever. She wants to please and makes an excellent watch dog.
Because of the wonderful adoption process of adopting Sassy, I began volunteering at the events. I quickly became aware of the time and money the organization spends on each rescued dog before a dog is ready for adoption. I truly enjoy the opportunity of volunteering at the adoption events. Seeing a happy dog go to a happy family is definitely priceless.
We adopted Elly from OKSAD 6 years ago. Since then I have fostered a few, and volunteer when I am able, at their adoption events. They are super hard working ladies and Sunshine practcally risks her life once in awhile, to rescue! Amazing people! I am constantly in awe! GOd bless them, they are constantly saving!!! 6 Stars in a 5 star review!

We adopted Elly here 4 years ago. These girls are tireless, rescuing so many dogs, shelters, puppy mills, hoarders, abusers, you name it! When I can, I foster now and then, and when I can, volunteer at adoption events for them. They try very hard to place all their dogs in the best loving homes!
ALL THE ANIMALS THAT ARE RESCUED ARE LOVED, KEPT IN LARGE OPEN FIELDS NOT IN CAGES, THE ADOPTERS ARE REALLY LOOKED INTO, IF THEY DO NOT LOOK RIGHT THEY WILL NOT GET A DOG,THEY WANT THE DOGS TO SETTLE INTO NEW HOMES FOREVER. THEY HATE TO GET RETURNS AS IT UPSETS THE DOGS. EVERYTHING THEY DO IS FOR THE DOGS WELFARE.
DONATIONS ARE A MUST TO KEEP THIS RESCUE OPEN, WHO CAN AFFORD TO FEED 100 DOGS WITHOUT DONATIONS? BEST RESCUE IN OKLAHOMA. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK KIM AND SUNSHINE.
they only save the dogs they can profit from. horrible organization. scam people for money and act as though they don't pay themselves.
To the people who adopted Poppy - I want you to know that Poppy was very loved and is missed terribly! I cry daily over what we had to do. You need to know also that Kim is a hateful woman, and she lies. She had in Poppy’s profile that “she had no idea why Poppy was returned” She knew good and well!! We did NOT want to return Poppy - my heart is broken and I miss her terribly! But she attacked our 5 lb Yorkie and put a gash on her head requiring staples from ear to ear. The Yorkie will be ok, but EVERYONE, including our vet, said it was a bad idea to try to keep Poppy now. (We’ve had Yorkie 9 years, Poppy almost 4 years) They said the risk of finding Yorkie dead sometime was too high. Poppy and I had a great connection and I feel like I lost part of me. I was trying to find a home for Poppy myself and Kim wrote me the most hateful, hurtful email! TO ANYONE WHO ADOPTS FROM THIS WOMAN - FIRST THING TO DO - have your dog rechipped to you! SECOND, If you ever find yourself in our position - DO NOT RETURN YOUR PET TO HER! Do whatever you can to find your dog a home! Kim will make you feel like dirt! She should not be in this business, she has sub-zero people skills. I wish all her dogs would be adopted out and she’d be put out of business!
This is beyond a rescue for dogs, they rescue every pet parent as well. They match you with a dog they feel is right for your family. I can't rave enough about the two babies I have from them. Were completely in love, and great full for this rescue.
I have adopted two Great Danes through OK Save a Dog. I went out to their facility and was incredibly impressed by how calm all the animals were. None of the frenetic fear that you see at a shelter. Huge pens for the dogs, separated, and with shelter from the weather. It was like going to someone's house who happened to have a LOT of dogs, rather than a rescue facility.
I cannot praise Kim and Sunshine enough for their hard work and dedication to the animals they rescue!
I've adopted 3 pugs from OK Save A Dog and I can say that these people are by far the most caring, compassionate and selfless dog rescuers I've ever known. They are never off-duty and everything they do is for and about the dogs (and whatever else happens to land in the rescue). I feel lucky to have found them and include them as part of my life.
OK SAVE A DOG is very compassionate and takes on some very tough behavioral and medical cases. Our shy Kaya came from them! Kim and Sunshine are the best at what they do.
I've known them for many years and they always find room to rescue dogs. They take wonderful care of them and are very particular when rehoming them making sure to find the best homes for the furbabies.
I love OK Save A Dog and would never adopt from anywhere else. These two dedicated individuals don't just rescue and re-home, they are truly dedicated to this cause. They will not allow their rescued pups to go to any home, it must be the right home. Their primary goal saving as many hopeless and condemned dogs as they can and finding them the best forever home available. They will never allow an intact pet to leave their kennels, thereby alleviating the need for anymore abandoned, unwanted dogs. After adoption they are available to answer questions, provide advice, educate and they alway love reports from the adopters about how the new family member is doing. A great organization, with dedicated, knowledgeable people who really care about their wards and the people who adopt them. Do yourself a favor if you want to adopt look to OK Save A Dog first.
A few months after losing my dog of 15 years I just felt called to go to a adoption event that included many rescues. I tucked my old dogs picture into my shirt on my heart and knew she would guide me and guide she did.
I found Ok Save a Dog and my sweet Nana there waiting to be adopted. I knew right away she was the one.
Since that day Ok Save a Dog has become like family.
Nana is here sleeping peacefully on her bed and so are the other 3 I've ended up bringing home.
I love Ok Save a Dog, the people who work tirelessly for them and I especially love my dogs.

The people behind OK Save A Dog are wonderful, selfless, giving, dedicated individuals. They are a rescue 24/7. They do all that they can, and most times more than they can for the dogs they save. The dogs are loved and well cared for in a beautiful location where they can be dogs. They are trained and only allowed to be adopted to approved homes. I adopted a precious dog from them in 2010 and she has been the perfect addition to our family. OK Save A Dog is one of the Best!
I have followed this rescue for several years now. I'm amazed at how much they are able to accomplish. They give 110% day in and day out. They work with a shoestring budget but yet are able to provide these animals so much. They truly have the animals best interest at heart. They sacrifice so much in their own lives to provide for these animals with a second chance. Truly great rescue.
Sunshine wants the best for every dog. She looks out for them like a family. I loved working with her when I volunteered and I know I am going to do it again. Thank you Sunshine and OK SAVE A DOG!
My husband and I adopted our dog, Cooper, from OKSAD in 2010 and we will never get a dog from anyplace else. This organization works harder than rescues three times their size! They rescue so many dogs from the most horrible conditions and turn them into loving family pets. I can not say enough nice things about Kim and her rescue.
Ok Save A Dog does outstanding job, everyday they are working extremely hard on rescuing animals that they get from gas chamber pounds, among other pounds,also finding abandoned dogs, Ok Save has always been the most honest, helpful people that I have ever found that are a rescue source for dogs. They tirelessly work 24|7 every day . They help me I am handicapped, and they showed me the dogs that would be suited for my needs, along with the dogs needs. Honestly there are few rescues in OKC that are good, but OK Save cannot be beat, they are awesome.
I can not thank Oklahoma Save a Dog Society enough for the great work they do every single day! We adopted our little Angus from them a year ago in Sept., and he been such a wonderful addition to our family! They do such a good job of screening applicants and making every single dime they receive stretch farther than it should be possible!
This is what it's all about. An organization that truly cares about what they do!! They are truly making a difference in all of the many hundreds dogs that they save. It is amazing and inspiring!
OK Save A Dog is an amazing rescue! I got my Benz (Darwin) from them back in Dec 2012 and he has been an absolute blessing! This place truly cares about where they place their dogs and about getting the consumer the best dog for their situation. The dogs are obviously loved until they find their forever homes or they are free to live out their days with them in a caring environment! LOVE this rescue!
I have adopted two dogs from OKSAD and both times I visited the actual rescue. Her dogs are not kept in cages, they have fenced yards and shelter. She has different yards for different sizes of dogs, and the small dogs even have access to her home via a doggy door. She loves each one as her own and has a vested interest in successful adoptions. You may apply for one pup, and she might suggest another based on information on your application. Sure she has cute little puppies, but she also has taken on dogs from hoarder situations, starving abandoned dogs, and even handicapped dogs. She is OCD on cleanliness. She is what every rescue group should aspire to be. God bless the OK Save A Dog rescue and many thanks for all of the lives they have saved and all of the happy homes they have approved!
As an animal advocate, I have great respect for this rescue. They go above and beyond to provide a safe haven for those In their care. They provide a wonderful environment for the animals and have strict adoption requirements. All the dogs receive great medical care..all are spayed/neutered prior to being made available for adoption. Medical care, regardless of what the need might be, is provided. They do not have any paid staff..Kim and Sunshine work tirelessly and depend on their faithful volunteers and donors. They deserve to have a five star rating without question.

I have been blessed by the schnauzer that I adopted from OK Save a Dog in 2011. Sassy is the best dog ever! She wants to please and is such a happy dog. She loves both stomach and belly rubs as well as saying hi to everyone when we take walks. Since her adoption, I have been volunteering and have witnessed the awesome dedication of Kim and Sun. They are truly awesome!
I have witnessed numerouse times the heartfelt love and devotion they have for the dogs. They go above and beyond to help find homes and fosters.
We adopted our fur-daughter from OKSAD back in 2011, they were amazing!!!! Every question we had, they answered, from adoption process, to after care. We still send updates (they were my Layla's "first" family. Many friends have adopted from here as well. They give their love, money, and endless hours. Absolutely the best around!!!!!
OK Save a Dog is amazing!! Their unwaivering dedication, hard work, and compassion are very evident to anyone who is familiar with them. My little diva girl, Sadie was rescued by them. I can not imagine my life without her. I am very grateful for what they do. Thank you OK Save a Dog!!
My, then seven year old,son had asked Santa for a puppy for Christmas so he could be his best friend. Our family dog had died the summer before and we missed her so much, we felt like our family was not complete without a four legged family member. I had been looking for a rescued dog online for months and always ended up back at OK Save A Dog's site. Their dogs were always happy and healthy looking after they had a chance to care for them and let them come to know they were safe and loved. I balked at the strict application rules a bit a first but, when we had looked all over town at shelters and other rescue places, I realized they were the best-they were there for the dogs welfare and only had their best interests in mind. That is the way it should be. When we drove out to see them after our application had been accepted, I was astonished at the cleanliness and well appointed facilities they maintained for the dogs. Dogs of all sizes and shapes were playing and wagging there tails, not cooped up in crates or small pens. It was very impressive and you could tell that they lived for these little guys. They made sure that we understood our responsibility, helped make sure that we were matched with the right pet for us, and we left with a healthy, happy, neutered and vet vaccinated and checked pup. He has been a perfect fit for us and the following year we adopted another one, this time an older girl who they saved the day before she was to be put down at the shelter. She gave birth to healthy puppies the next day! They had a foster care for them until they were weaned and old enough to be with there own new families and she is a happy spoiled little girl now, we all couldn't be happier. I strongly recommend OK Save A Dog, their knowledge, care, and dedication is outstanding. I have often heard of these folks referred to as angels, I think that might be right.
She rescued my dog that I surrendered to the shelter. She was on the list to be euthanize'd. Kim saved her and not only does she take care of her since I no longer could she takes care of me too. We talk several times a week via email and she is so understanding in the way that I miss my dog so much. She is not in the business of saving Human's but she saved me from my guilt and from myself. She has also educated me on so many issues concerning dogs. She is truly an amazing Woman, a credit to the human race and I would be in such bad shape right now with out her. Thank You Thank You Thank You Kim and Sunshine for all the sacrifices you make in an effort to make right what the rest of us do wrong.
I contacted OKSAD about adopting a min pin. She showed me a picture of a sweet red min pin in the pound to be killed THAT DAY. I instantly told her I wanted her and she was brought to the rescue. She was one of the best adoptions I've ever made. *I've adopted all my dogs* Her name was Tessa we brought her home and she is the biggest joy! This was back in Oct. We recently decided to adopt another min pin to add to our family and so OF COURSE I go to OKSAD site and out pops little ISIS. She had only been at the rescue for 5 days and was super tiny. I immediately contacted Kim and asked to adopt her. I adopted her on March 28th and she is a great joy! She is getting bigger and stronger and much more social! I just love her! I cannot thank OKSAD enough for what they do and for my girls. They are a blessing! I send everyone I know to OKSAD! Thanks OKSAD!!!!
I have worked with OKSAD on and off since 2006. I have done transport and fostering for them. They are always ready and willing to back me up with any extra care the animal needs. They keep their rescue clean and presentable. Never smelly. They keep the dogs well cared for. I have worked with other rescues and this is by far my favorite! I never feel like my time is abused or wasted with this group.
When I was checking around years ago for a dog, I knew I wanted to go through a local rescue shelter. OK Save A Dog was so wonderful to work with and I couldn't ask for a better furry companion! I now follow them on Facebook, and from everything I read, OKSAD still exceeds expectations. They go above and beyond to rescue animals in need and inform the public of upcoming adoption events, fundraising events, etc. The next time I'm looking for a new furry addition to my family, I will definitely return to OK Save A Dog.
We adopted a pet a few years ago and had a wonderful experience with OKSAD. This is definitely the best pet adoption facility in Oklahoma and probably among the other surrounding states as well. The owners take exceptional care of every pet they take in as if they were their own and pets are very well groomed and already spayed/neutered and vaccinated. There is no better way to adopt a pet than from OKSAD. We will definitely adopt all of our pets from now on from them.
In 2008 we lost one of our little dogs, a friend at work pointed me to a listing on Pet Finders of a litter of PomChis. I looked at the listing and realized they were about an hour drive from us, so I applied on line to adopt one of the puppies and once approved, we drove out to OK Save a Dog and met Kim. The dogs were all so well cared for and it was obvious they were happy and loved there. Of course the one we were interested in was one of four from the litter and Kim told us another couple was driving up from Texas to take one of the males, but we could have our pick of the males. Well call us crazy, but we ended up adopting one of the males and both the females that day and have since adopted two more from Kim. I love her dedication to the animals. Some people complain about rescues having adoption applications, etc. I say great, if you can't be bothered to fill out an application to get a new member of your family, then you probably won't be bothered to care for them. Kim and Sunshine are wonderful and the work they do is admirable. Keep saving them Kim and Sunshine and I will keep doing all I can to help!

THANK YOU Susan
In 2008 I started online searching to adopt a rescue dog. I came across OK Save A Dog and read a great newspaper article on Kim & her rescue. She approved my application, I asked her to chose the dog & she recommended a GSD mix, a little older, a little overweight that so many others had overlooked. Her words "He's the best dog on this place"... and he was! I continue to support OK Save A Dog through United Way contributions, donated items and referring friends to her for adoption. A coworker of mine has also adopted here, and another is considering. I will myself adopt again from OK Save a Dog. Her dogs are happy, socialized and healthy!

Thank You Melissa
I adopted a pet from OK Dog and it was a great experience. I appreciate all the effort that they put into finding homes for these dogs and not just "homes" they actually make sure that it will be a good home and if they dont think it will be then they dont let you adopt. The animals are all ready with shots, spade and neutered before you get them and i had never adopted a pet before but i highly would recomment it to other people. Everyone wants a puppy but i got Bella ...aka pepper and she was 9 months old and was saved by Ok dog and she was very thin when i got her but our family loves her and she loves us unconditionally! Thank you

Thank You so much for adopting...
I am a 'client served' having adopted a dog from OKSAD.
I am a 'volunteer', having fostered dogs from OKSAD.
And I am 'experienced in the field', very experienced (20 years).
OKSAD is without a doubt the most professional and dedicated rescue that I have ever run across in over 20 years of being involved in dog rescue. Right there in the middle of small town Oklahoma is a Wonder. A person who has done this on her own for over 10 years resulting in the rescue and placement of over 6,000 dogs! Six thousand dogs! It's hard work rescuing just one dog. It must be evaluated, vetted, bathed, photographed, advertised and most of all loved. I applaud anyone that's rescued even one dog, but thousands of dogs - it's unheard of. It just doesn't happen.
Bravo and a standing ovation for Kim and OK Save A Dog in Prague OK ! ! ! ! ! Thank you so much for your dedication to saving unwanted and in need dogs for over 10 years now!!! The dogs would say Thank You themselves if they could type.

Thank you for your continued support!
Ok Save A Dog is such a dedicated rescue group! The amount of work that goes into rescues, adoptions, & educating the public, by this group is an insperation!!! Thank you for all you do!!!
Thank God for OK Save a Dog. They are a blessing to all the mistreated and abused dogs. They do such a wonderful job finding forever homes for the dogs that they rescue. They are truly compassionate and caring people that restore a dog's faith in man. Keep up the great work. I love you guys.
I adopted a pet from OK Save a Dog rescue in recent months. I am pleased and amazed at what they do there! Not only do they rescue animals from all kinds of bad situations, they see that they get whatever care they need when they get there (including vetting), they are kept in the best of conditions possible, and are certainly non-profit - I don't see how they do it! And, when it comes to adoption, they are very cautious in seeing that the dog is placed in a good, loving, forever home with the proper environment conducive to a life-long happy relationship for both the pet and the pet's new family (human and otherwise). In my books, they are just the BEST all the way around!
The work done by this rescue group is heart warming. I've read story after story about the dogs they've saved. I love the updates on the dogs who found new hames and families through them
I have see the storys from some of the dogs these amazing people take in and they are truly awful. These guys take in dogs(an a few other critters) from horrible situations and turn them into wonderful loving pets worthy of great homes. They do this out of the goodness and love in their hearts and ask nothing in return for themselves except the continuing goodwill of man towards our furry companions....Kim and Sunny are truly exceptional people and should be comended for their actions to the fullest extent.
Kim and Sunshine truly treat each individual animal coming across them as a family member. No matter how short the stay a particular animal is there it will have a name and id (rabies). I have watched countless animals turned over to them, seen them cared for, recouped and adopted into loving families. I have been with Sunshine as she worked 24 hrs straight at an adoption event and she never failed to amaze me. I look up to these women and only wish I could help them more.
Kim and the staff at OK Save A Dog have the biggest hearts for animals than anyone I know. Last summer I was on the hunt for a new friend and luckily ran across an ad for a beautiful male PBGV. When I got to OK Save A Dog, I was warmly greeted by Sunshine and shortly thereafter by Kim. It was/is evident beyond a doubt that these ladies truly care and love for their animals in their care. I continue to keep in touch with Kim to this day and I tell everyone who'll listen to me that the best place to adopt is OK Save A Dog. I love Kim's policy of not adopting out until spaying or neutering and the vet care the animals receive in her care seems excellent. Thank you, OK Save A Dog for everything you do
I have known Kim and Ok save a Dog Rescue since 2004. I adopted my 2 dogs from there. Thats when I seen how wonderful she was and what good things her Rescue was doing. I volunteer for them and foster pups for her. Kim not only saves these animals from death but she loves them. They are not just numbers to her. She has many many sleepless night taking care og the ill ones and bottle feeding the orphan pups. She don't just take em to the vet , she has to do all the work herself. She get NO funding at all! She depends on private donors. None of the sdoption fee nor donations even come close to covering the expenses of the animals in need. There is no other rescue I would recommend in helping at this point than Ok Save a dog in Prague oklahoma. The animals are loved dearly and no matter what has a home there at the rescue no matter how long it takes for them to find their forever home.
OK Save a Dog does great work. Many innocent animal lives have been saved. Great care of these animals is taken, they receive veterinary care and are spayed and neutered before they are adopted to loving people who will cherish them the rest of their years.
they take on the role,not many would,,,ok save a dog is THE BEST you can get for a dog..they provide LOVE like no other shelter i've seen,,before adoption,they make sure,where,&who the dog is going,,they keep a record(track) ofthe pet,,,I wisahed I cxould do more to support OK SAVE A DOG,,,we love them & what theyachive,,,,God bless
Kim and all the OK Save A Dog volunteers do a wonderful job at saving countless lives of animals by taking them in regardless of the challenges and finding them loving homes. Lots of rescues rehome shelter dogs but OK Save A Dog takes the time to find them loving homes that are the right fit for the animal and the adopters.
OkSaveADog is a wonderful rescue. These ladies love and care for so many dogs each year. Each dog is vetted and spayed/neutered upon arrival. Their rescue isn't like any I've ever seen. The dogs have comfortable living, are very well taken care of, happy and healthy. These ladies are angels. Love all they do!
I've known Ok Save A Dog for several years. The first time I met Kim was when she helped a beautiful red golden that I found wandering, half starved and filthy. Within a month, this girl was cleaned up, fully vetted and in a new home.
They work tirelessly saving and finding good homes for the dogs at the rescue. Being outside the metro means travel is a big part of their adoption process but each week, sometimes several times a week, they journey to the city to adoption events and to rescue dogs in need.
Kim is incredible. Her heart is truly with the dogs she saves. No matter what, she will not allow a dog to go to a home she does not feel is best. Even if it takes a little longer to find a good home and that costs her that much more. She knows the animal will not be in a good place and could end up back in a shelter.
Kim works very hard to save many (600 yr) dogs from kill shelters and pounds, she keeps them all in comfort while spaying and neutering 100% before adoption. These dogs are loved and well cared for they are happy and content.
Kim works for no wages, 365 days a yr no donations are used for wages 100% goes to caring for the dogs.
Your money goes to saving lives here no wages, no fancy buildings to support.
